Why So Downcast My Soul, Psalm 43 Lyrics

Vindicate me, O God
And defend my cause against them
An ungodly people
From those who are deceitful and unjust
Deliver me
For You Are the God
In Whom I take refuge
Why have You cast me off?
Why must I walk about mournfully
Because of the oppression of the enemy
O send out Your light and Your truth
Let them lead me
Let them bring me to Your holy hill
And Your dwelling place
Then I’ll go to the altar of God

To God my great joy
And I’ll praise You with the harp
Why are you cast down, O my soul
And so disquieted
Hope in God, for I shall again praise Him
My help and my God
